Stop providing branch prediction information

The __builtin_expect() can be used to provide the compiler with branch
prediction information.  The Gcc manual says[1] on the subject:

    In general, you should prefer to use actual profile feedback for
    this (-fprofile-arcs), as programmers are notoriously bad at
    predicting how their programs actually perform.

Stop using __builtin_expect() and ISC_LIKELY() and ISC_UNLIKELY() macros
to provide the branch prediction information as the performance testing
shows that named performs better when the __builtin_expect() is not
being used.
